We're going to do an after market coil swap.

Herbs 4-runner was sagging in the rear. He wanted to level it out and gain a little ground clearance.

 

One old coil is removed, and the new one is ready to pop in. Easier said than done. A spring compresser helps.

Not much difference in height, but there is one more coil and more resistance due to thicker gauge.

It's a bear getting the old one out past the snubber. We didn't want to start unbolting suspension parts.

With these in Hootman's Runner sits level.

 

            Hootman is laggin' on getting me before and after shots!
